Garbage Can Ballet

Living in a garbage can can be a lot of fun

It has its ups and downs

Old paper cups and coffee grounds, la la

Living in the garbage can can be a lot of fun

Especially if you meet the perfect onion

Oh, the great garbage can is just full of good stuff

All the discarded refuse of man

Like the half-used banana

Whose girlfriend is Anna

Who shout, "Let us out of this can!"

"Woe," said the poor Brussels sprout

"If only me and the banana could get out

We'd find an asparagus

Who'd stand up and marry us

But the first thing to do is get out"

Now an old piece of ham

Is in love with some lamb

But a young head of lettuce is, too

Now, said the ham to the lettuce

"The lamb will forget us

As soon as he learns I love you"

The great garbage can

It's a tribute to the ingenuity of man

Where corn and tomatoes

Are mixed with potatoes

And thrown in together with ham

Where a Brussels sprout and a sauerkraut

Can get together and have it out

And no one seems to care about the plan

And a succotash and a piece of hash

Can get together and have a bash

For life is always equal in the can
